Sony Ericsson Walkman W880 mobile phone

 

Sony Ericsson's W880 is the company's thinnest Walkman handset to date and shows that it can do slim to compete with the likes of Samsung. But is it enough to impress? We take a closer look.

1GB Memory Stick Micro in the box, 3G, styling, thinness, blogging software

We found keypad prickly to use, no direct 3.5mm jack for headphones

Now that we've had some time to live with and use the phone, our first glance impressions were right. The W880 is a well polished phone that certainly has the wow factor along with a bit of retro styling thrown in for good measure. It's solid stuff...

Sony Ericsson W880 review: No catch, plain thin

 

Sony Ericsson W880 is the newest addition to the Sony Ericsson Walkman line. Nothing uncommon here, we've seen lots of those. The most unusual thing about it though is its form factor – an ultra slim bar-shaped handset with plenty of cool features to...

The recent trend in mobile devices design is clear - make it as slim as it gets. Sony Ericsson long stood aside from the race for the slimmest mobile phone. Instead they preferred giving priority to their Walkman-branded music phones, cameraphones or...

Sony Ericsson W880 review

 

The Sony Ericsson W880 is the World?s thinnest Walkman (phone) ever! It?s measuring in at only 9.4 millimetres in depth, which makes it fit perfectly in every pocket. It features the second generation Walkman player for mobile phones, which has a...

Review: Sony Ericsson W880

 

There are few who would deny that Sony Ericsson's W880 is one of the sexiest looking music phones on the market today. The question is, can its iPod Nano-like form factor work on a device that has to make phone calls and send messages as well as play...

Compact and light, stylish, good music player, great reception

Cramped ergonomics, poor keypad and controls, no dedicated music keys

Sony Ericsson W880

 

Compact size, sharp screen, great photos and the keypad is much easier than its small buttons would suggest

Having just started to need reading glasses I can't always read texts or see the characters by the buttons, but then that's me not the phone isn't it
